H&E Equipment Services Opens Branch in Texarkana, Texas
Effective November 6, H&E Equipment Services has opened a new branch in Texarkana, Texas. The location on the Texas-Arkansas line makes it the company’s 24th rental location in the state of Texas, and it is the third branch to serve the Arkansas market, primarily in the southwestern area of the state. So far this year, H&E has opened 13 new branches across the country.
“H&E has extended its coverage across the Texas-Arkansas state line to easily reach any project between our existing Longview, Shreveport, El Dorado, and Little Rock branches,” said branch manager Hunter Hatfield. “We’ve added greater fleet availability to the area, and the location of our new facility allows quick access to I-30, I-49, and state highways that branch off in all directions, so delivery of rental equipment to job sites is timely and efficient. I’ve worked from our Dallas branch for many years, and I’ve hit the ground running and can help customers secure the right equipment for their projects from this new location.”
The Texarkana branch specializes in the rental of aerial lifts, earthmoving equipment, telescopic forklifts, compaction equipment, generators, light towers, compressors, and more and represents the following manufacturers: Allmand, Atlas Copco, Bomag, Case, Club Car, Cushman, Doosan, Gehl, Generac Mobile, Genie, Hamm, Hilti, Husqvarna, JCB, JLG, John Deere, Kobelco, Kubota, LayMor, Ledwell, Lincoln Electric, Link-Belt Excavators, MEC, Miller, Multiquip, Polaris, Sany, Skyjack, SkyTrak, Sullair, Sullivan-Palatek, Tag, Towmaster, Unicarriers, Wacker Neuson, Yanmar, and others.
Founded in 1961, H&E Equipment Services has more than 135 branches throughout the Pacific Northwest, West Coast, Intermountain, Southwest, Gulf Coast, Southeast, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions. Based in Baton Rouge, La., H&E is No. 5 on the RER 100. For more information, visit HErentals.com.
